Proactive policing in Minneapolis plunged dramatically following the murder of George Floyd last year, even as violent crime soared, a new analysis reveals as the city prepares to vote on a ballot initiative to abolish the police department. In the year following Floyd's death, traffic stops in Minneapolis plunged 74 percent, patrols of known problem areas were down 76 percent, and stops of suspicious people plunged 75 percent, according to a Reuters investigation.(Snip)One officer said that some Minneapolis cops even deliberately take a longer route than necessary to respond to 911 calls, in the hope that whatever the emergency is, it will be resolved by the time they arrive.

Rapper Nicki Minaj announced she was not attending this year’s Met Gala because organizers mandated all attendees be vaccinated.
“They want you to get vaccinated for the Met,” Minaj tweeted Monday as the glitzy event got underway. “If I get vaccinated it won’t be for the Met.”(Snip)“My cousin in Trinidad won’t get the vaccine cuz his friend got it & became impotent,” she said. “His testicles became swollen. His friend was weeks away from getting married, now the girl called off the wedding. So just pray on it & make sure you’re comfortable with ur decision, not bullied.” The string of tweets got Minaj trending on Twitter with many users sharing
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s outfit at the Met Gala came with a message. The New York congresswoman wore a white gown with the phrase “Tax the Rich” emblazoned in red on the back. The dress was designed by Aurora James, who created a pledge for large corporations to fill 15% of their shelves with products from Black-owned businesses. “When Aurora and I were first kind of partnered, we really started having a conversation about what it means to be working-class women of color at the Met, and we said we can’t just play along, but we need to break the fourth wall and challenge some of the institutions
Secretary of State Antony Blinken faced at least one question he was not expecting when he appeared before Congress on Monday to discuss Afghanistan: Had he handed over documents about Hunter Biden and his dealings in Ukraine to the FBI? Republican Rep. Scott Perry used his five minutes of time to quiz the nation's top diplomat on what he knew about an investigation into the president's wayward son. The result was a witness who struggled to find the words to respond.(Snip)'How long was your recent interview with the FBI? Was it a deposition?' Blinken responded: 'I'm sorry I don't know to what you're referring.'
The Republican National Committee was “weighing its options” Monday after a report said the Federal Election Commission has tossed its complaint that Twitter illegally suppressed The Post’s expose about Hunter Biden’s emails. “As Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said recently, it was a ‘total mistake’ for Twitter to suppress this important story,” RNC spokeswoman Emma Vaughn said. “Worse, it was also illegal and our complaint persuasively explains why.”(Snip)US Rep. Mary Miller (R-Ill.) tweeted, “Big Tech and the Mainstream Media blocked the Hunter Biden story to affect the outcome of the election in violation of election law. They are now lying about it and facing zero consequences!”
A profane chant mocking Joe Biden broke out at college football games for the second straight week in stadiums across Southern states as the president's approval ratings dip following the chaotic evacuation from Afghanistan and his controversial vaccine mandate for federal workers. The [expletive] Joe Biden shouts echoed throughout stadiums during games played by Coastal Carolina, Virginia Tech, Auburn, Alabama State, Mississippi State, North Carolina State and Texas A&M.(Snip)The chant has even spread to professional sports, uniting Yankees and Mets fans after a game in New York on Saturday. Video from that day shows fans of both teams singing the words as they leave Citi Field in Queens.

An Afghan interpreter who worked alongside the U.S. during the war said he made three trips to Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul during the chaotic withdrawal last month in failed attempts to escape the country with his wife and three children. The last time was when a suicide bomb attack killed more than 170 Afghans and 13 U.S. troops at the airport gate. His family was unharmed, but they remain trapped and fearing for their lives in the Taliban-controlled country.(Snip)They evacuated smugglers, terrorists, beggars, street boys, but we are the ones [who should be] eligible,” said the interpreter, whose name The Washington Times
Kabul, Afghanistan—The Taliban’s reinstatement of the Ministry for Propagation of Virtue and Prevention of Vice—which was abolished following the US occupation—sent a collective shudder through many Afghans, who remembered it for its strict interpretation of Islamic law. “The main purpose is to serve Islam. Therefore, it is compulsory to have Ministry of Vice and Virtue,” Mohammad Yousuf, who says he is around 32 years old and responsible for the “central zone” of Afghanistan, tells me from inside his Kabul office on Monday. “We will punish as per the Islamic rules. Whatever Islam guides us, we will punish accordingly.”(Snip)“Islam has its rules for major sins.
A federal judge has ruled in favor of a gay substitute teacher this month in a lawsuit over his being fired from a Catholic school because of his marriage to another man. U.S. District Judge Max O. Cogburn Jr., an Obama appointee, sided with Lonnie Billard, who sued Charlotte Catholic High School in North Carolina after he was removed from substitute teaching because he chose to marry a man.
According to the federal lawsuit, Mr. Billard argued that the school discriminated against him in violation of the Civil Rights Act and removed him from its substitute teaching list after he announced on social media that he would be marrying his partner.
The city’s subway stations with the worst ongoing vagrancy problems saw homelessness spike nearly 45 percent over the summer, the MTA’s safety chief revealed Monday. The eight stations—all but one in Manhattan—were being used as living quarters by an average of 14.7 people in August, up from 10.2 homeless people in May, MTA chief safety officer Patrick Warren said. The stations comprise some of the city’s busiest commuter hubs, including Grand Central Terminal, Penn Station, the Port Authority bus terminal and Lexington Avenue/59th Street, Warren said during a monthly meeting of the MTA’s Safety Committee in Manhattan. The others are tourist landmarks Times Square and Union Square,
A trade group that represents the $2 trillion packaged goods industry says businesses have critical questions about President Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and need answers within hours, not weeks. The Consumer Brands Association, whose members include companies such as Coca-Cola, General Mills and Kellogg, sent a letter to the White House demanding immediate details on Mr. Biden’s executive order issued last week, which requires companies with 100 or more employees to mandate the vaccine or impose weekly testing.(Snip)He wrote that the group doesn’t oppose the vaccine mandate but needs the administration to clarify details of the COVID-19 order.
This is the moment an Australia man brutally beat a female police officer in Sydney while she was enforcing the city's strict lockdown rules. The man launched his attack in the suburb of Bankstown around midday Monday after the officers saw him standing in the street and asked him to move along. Video shows one officer being repeatedly kicked and punched while her colleague calls for help having been kicked in the chest and punched moments earlier—suffering 'cuts and bruises'.(Snip)Sydney is now entering its 12th week under draconian lockdown rules which ban people from leaving home without a 'reasonable excuse' and mean they cannot loiter in public places

Without immediate action to combat climate change, 216 million people could be forced to migrate to other parts of their country by 2050. A new report from the World Bank modeled the impact of rising sea levels, water scarcity and declining crop productivity on six regions, concluding that climate migration 'hotspots' will emerge as soon as 2030.The poorest parts of the world will be hit hardest, researchers said: Sub-Saharan Africa alone would account for 86 million of the internal migrants, with 19 million more in North Africa, the report showed,
I held off on writing about the “F*** Joe Biden” chants that began at college football games a couple of weeks ago. I had three reasons. First, I’m not a fan of obscenities because I think they cheapen speech. Second, these chants were initially small groups at Southern colleges, which really didn’t seem like a “thing.” Third, I wasn’t going to get excited until I learned whether the chants had legs. Well, it turns out they do have legs and they’re becoming large chants at multiple games (including New York baseball games). And most importantly, Joe Biden knows about them and isn’t happy.

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer said on this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday” that they did not hear President Donald Trump’s 2020 election case because it did not meet “normal criteria.”
Anchor Chris Wallace said, “One of your arguments against seeing the court’s political is the fact that it refused to even hear the appeals from the Trump campaign about the 2020 election. Didn’t even hear it them.”
In a video, former President Donald Trump said, “No judge has had the courage, including the Supreme Court — I am so disappointed in them...
Bill Maher took aim at the NFL for playing Lift Every Voice and Sing - otherwise known as the black national anthem - at Thursday's game between the Dallas Cowboys and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.The Real Time with Bill Maher host warned that having two different national anthems, based on race, was a slippery slope to 'segregation' but 'under a different name,' he said.'I think when you go down a road where you're having two different national anthems, colleges... have different graduation ceremonies for black and white, separate dorms... this is what I mean: segregation,' Maher said
CNN poll: America turns irate, glum

Americans are fuming and pessimistic at this time, that’s for sure. A new CNN poll finds that 74% of U.S. adults now say they are “very or somewhat angry” about the way things are going in the U.S. today—that includes 88% of Republicans, 70% of independents and even 67% of Democrats. But wait, there’s more. Another 69% of U.S. adults now say that things are going “pretty or very badly” in the country these days—that includes 91% of Republicans, 72% of independents and 49% of Democrats. And by the way, illegal immigration is still a concern for many in this nation. The CNN survey also found that 77%
I will never trust another doctor

It happened again yesterday, twice. Reading through comments on a blog post I found this: "I will never trust another doctor again." I long ago lost count of the number of times I have seen that written.
You hear it, too. In private conversations with people they trust, American citizens are heaping contempt on doctors for forcing a narrative on us that had no basis in science. Many of us, perhaps even the majority, immediately recognized this virus for what it is -- a common flu virus

The White House abruptly cut the feed of President Biden's briefing on wildfires with federal and state officials. During Monday's visit to Boise, Idaho, Biden received a briefing about the ongoing wildfires that have plagued several states out west.
While Biden spoke for much of the briefing, at one point he said he wanted to hear more from George Geissler of the National Association of State Foresters. "Can I ask you a question?" Biden asked.
"Of course," Geissler responded.
"One of the things that I've been working on with some others is —" Biden said before being cut off mid-sentence.
A group of very young Trump supporters hilariously trolled Joe Biden in Shanksville, PA over the weekend – much to the horror of Biden’s handlers.
NBC News reported that after attending a memorial event at ground zero, Biden visited the Flight 93 memorial in Shanksville. Apart from being part of the wreath-laying ceremony, the U.S. President also visited the local fire department.
It was there when a bunch of kids approached Biden and the U.S. President was pictured surrounded by them.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called Senator Joe Manchin 'patronizing' for referring to her as a 'young lady' as the two Democrats spar over his objections to the party's massive spending bill. Manchin appeared on CNN's State of the Union on Sunday to explain his concerns with President Joe Biden's $3.5 trillion plan for social and environmental spending, denying Ocasio-Cortez's allegation that he has 'weekly huddles' with Exxon executives.'I don't know that young lady that well, I really don't. I met her one time between sets here, but that's it. We've not had any conversations.
"Many, many more mandates" will come on top of the Biden administrations' new vaccine restrictions, Dr. Anthony Fauci said Sunday. Fauci predicted that colleges, universities, and businesses are likely to start imposing vaccine mandates, he told CNN's Jen Christensen at a panel organized by NLGJA: The Association of LGBTQ Journalists on Sunday. "And I believe that's going to turn this around because I don't think people are going to want to not go to work, or not go to college, or not go to university," he said. However, he said he did not expect more "centrally-derived mandates" to be on
